why do a slow -moving loaded truck and a speeding rifle bullet have a large momentum?
Homework Answers
Because momentum of an object is defined as the product of its mass and velocity:
A truck has smaller velocity but huge mass as compared to a bullet which has huge velocity but very small mass. Since the momentum depends upon the product of mass and velocity of an object, even a very small mass object can have momentum equal to that of a very big object , provided its velocity is huge.

A large semitrailer truck and a small car have equal momentum. How do their speeds compare? The truck has a much higher speed than the car. The truck has a much lower speed than the car. The truck has only a slightly lower speed than the car. The truck has only a slightly higher speed than the car. Both have the same speed.

A bullet of mass m is moving horizontally with speed vo when it hits a block of mass 100m that is at rest on a horizontal frictionless table. The surface of the table is a height h above the floor The bullet passes through the block and the block slides off the table. Why is the distance the block lands from the table less than it would be if the bullet had been imbeded in the block. Do not use...

1. A moving truck has momentum. If it moves four times as fast, its momentum is as much. 2. Two carts, one three times as heavy as the other, move down a hill at the same speed. Compared to the lighter cart, the momentum of the heavier cart is as much. 3. A bus is traveling at highway speeds when the momentum of an unlucky bug is suddenly changed as it splatters into the...

1. Mountain roads often have switchbacks, a road weaving back and forth across the face of a mountain slope, so that on any portion of the road there is usually only a gentle incline. Why are these switchbacks used? Do switchbacks require less work for an automobile climbing the mountain than if the automobile went straight up a mountain slope? Does the answer depend on the frictional force on the car’s tires? 2. A 5.0 kilogram rifle fires a bullet...

Q1 A small object with a momentum of magnitude 2.71 kg m/s approaches head-on a large object at rest. The small object bounces straight back with a momentum of magnitude 6.19 kg m/s. What is the magnitude of the small object's momentum change in kg m/s? Q2 A force acts on a 4.708 kg mass as follows: the force starts at zero and rises to 60.334 N linearly in 2.24 seconds, it remains at 60.334 N for another 5.756 seconds,...

Select the statements that explain why very small and very large populations experience slow population growth under the logistic growth model. 1- Small populations have fewer individuals capable of producing offspring. 2- Limited resources are shared among many individuals in very large populations. 3- The intrinsic growth rate is higher when populations contain many individuals. 4- The carrying capacity is larger for populations that contain very few individuals.
